"... Research into (semi-)supervised clustering has been increasing. Supervised clustering aims to group similar data that are partially guided by the user’s supervision. In this supervised clustering, there are many choices for formalization. For example, as a type of supervision, one can adopt labels o ..."

of data points, must/cannot links, and so on. Given a real clustering task, such as grouping documents or image segmentation, users must confront the question “How should we mathematically formalize our task? ” To help answer this question, we propose the classification of real clusterings into absolute

"... Recent advances in biotechnology allow researchers to measure expression levels for thousands of genes simultaneously, across different conditions and over time. Analysis of data produced by such experiments offers potential insight into gene function and regulatory mechanisms. A key step in the ana ..."

in the analysis of gene expression data is the detection of groups of genes that manifest similar expression patterns. The corresponding algorithmic problem is to cluster multi-condition gene expression patterns. In this paper we describe a novel clustering algorithm that was developed for analysis of gene

"... This article presents a theory of how different types of discrepancies between self-state representa-tions are related to different kinds of emotional vulnerabilities. One domain of the self (actual; ideal; ought) and one standpoint on the self (own; significant other) constitute each type of self-s ..."

"... In this paper, we propose to use coordinates-based mechanisms in a peer-to-peer architecture to predict Internet network distance (i.e. round-trip propagation and transmission delay) . We study two mechanisms. The first is a previously proposed scheme, called the triangulated heuristic, which is bas ..."

is based on relative coordinates that are simply the distances from a host to some special network nodes. We propose the second mechanism, called Global Network Positioning (GNP), which is based on absolute coordinates computed from modeling the Internet as a geometric space. Since end hosts maintain

"... Volatility permeates modern financial theories and decision making processes. As such, accurate measures and good forecasts of future volatility are critical for the implementation and evaluation of asset and derivative pricing theories as well as trading and hedging strategies. In response to this, ..."

"... Human action in video sequences can be seen as silhouettes of a moving torso and protruding limbs undergoing articulated motion. We regard human actions as three-dimensional shapes induced by the silhouettes in the space-time volume. We adopt a recent approach [14] for analyzing 2D shapes and genera ..."

recognition, detection and clustering. The method is fast, does not require video alignment and is applicable in (but not limited to) many scenarios where the background is known. Moreover, we demonstrate the robustness of our method to partial occlusions, non-rigid deformations, significant changes in scale

This paper presents the design and implementation of an architecture for resource management in a hosting center op-erating system, with an emphasis on energy as a driving resource management issue for large server cl ..."

The goals are to provi-sion server resources for co-hosted services in a way that automati-cally adapts to offered load, improve the energy efficiency of server dusters by dynamically resizing the active server set, and respond to power supply disruptions or thermal events by degrading service
